1689 Julius Caesar WAR Commentaries Military Tactics MAP French & Latin 2v ROME

"If you must break the law, do it to seize power: in all other cases observe it!"

– Julius Caesar

A rare collection of civil war histories and Julius Caesar war commentaries!

Julius Caesar's war commentaries are some of the most prolific military writings! While not specifically known for his writing, Julius Caesar wrote this book which would become a mainstay in the Latin literature canon. It focuses on the first-hand account of Julius Caesar in the Gallic wars, but it was written as though from a third-person view.

This rare 1689 edition includes both French and Latin translation, collected and edited by Nicolas Perrot d'Ablancourt, printed in two volumes.

"The more corrupt the state, the more numerous the laws."
― Tacitus, The Annals
Cornelius Tacitus was a 1st-century Roman historian who is now remembered for his two major works – 'Annals' and 'Histories' – in which he examines the lives and political careers of important Roman emperors such as Tiberius, Nero, and Claudius. By many accounts, Tacitus is considered the greatest Roman historian, not only by the accuracy of his content, but through demonstrating the psychological nature of ancient Roman politics.
